Germline Targeted Baboon Apolipoprotein L-1 Protects Mice Against African Trypanosomes

Sara Fresard, Sarah J. Pangburn, Kayla Leiss…·Joseph Verdi

This study generates trypanosome-resistant murine models expressing primate APOL1 proteins to investigate their role in immunity, finding that baboon APOL1 provides partial protection but with limited expression, while a chimeric APOL1 variant shows protection with a fitness cost.
